eek History Of Ic.ians.
For Huron Ccuniy Saga
An Wert • to till .a. blank spot in'
the early history of Hltrpn .County:
by digging for evidence of Indian
habitations before the white men
arrived, may +be made by archae--
•ological teams from the TTniver--
,city .of Western Ontario, said
Prof, James (Scott; ISeaforth when
he r5P.rted to Huron County
Council on bis progress on an
assignment to write a history of
the county.
'Prof, Scott, a resident of Sea-
forth and member of the faculty
og the University of Western On-
tarso, 'has' been commissioned by
e.County County of Huron, at •a, fee .of
$1,000 a year for five years, to
prepare an authoritative history
of the county. He appeared before
the county ,epuncil to report ell
his first year of work on the five-
year project.
,Little is known, said Prof. Scott
4f the Indians who hunted and
fought in Huron before 1828,
when the (lanada Company' .first
undertook to bring white settlers
to the Huron Tract. For the past
year, he reported, be had been
concentrating on research into
the Canada .Company period,"
which encompassed the first stag-
es
tages of white • settlement in the
southern two-thirds of the area
now included in Huron.` At the
same time, he reported,. he has
been trying to .persuade Wilfred
Jury, archaeologisal expert on the
University of Western Ontario
staff, to undertake digging pro-
jects in. Huron .to unearth some
information,about the time before
the first white man arrived.
"We still have not had any
archaeological work done in this

THE POTATO RANCHER
AND THE $LICKERS
One time old Ffred who was a
potato• rancher; went to the
city with a suitcase full of
cash to buy a Cadillac: 'When
he arrived he met two slickers
who said that.they'were also
from out of town. They all
went out together to see the
sights,' and . it was then"that
the slickers confided to Old
Ffred that they had a fast deal
for him to buy), City hall for
only 1,000 dollars. But old
Fired was not to be outsmarted
of his hard-earned cash and
said, "You can't fool me
'cause Y buy a. lot of seed
potatoes and I know that you
only get What you pay for"
Iasarante is like that yaw knew.
Insurance that really insures
is a good investment. When

cities the value of your invest.'

Source Material
The winding up, abotrt a year
ago, Of the affairs of the Canada
Company,. Prof. Scott said, has
made a wealth of new material:
available for study. All the books
and records of the company, he
explained, were shipped to Can-
ada, or the national archives, and
are now stored in Toronto. Since
these valuable source .documents
became .available, said Prof, Scott
he has made many trips to Tor-
onto to explore in the account
books and ledgers of the company
for new information about the
early years of settlement is the.
Huron Tract,
The portion of Huron County
which was opened and settled
under Canada Company arrange-
ments included the towAships of
Stephen, Hay, Stanley, Goderlch,
Colborne, Tuckersmith, McKillop
Usborne and Bullet, and the ur-
ban centres of Exeter, Hensall,
Goderich, Clinton and ,Seaforth.
The records now available in
Toronto, Prof. Scott said, have
never beeni catalogued or studied,
and are providing a fresh fund of
information about the early years
Of settlement in Huron,
At the same time as he has
been doing research on the Can-
ada Company records, Prof. ,Scott
reported, he has been trying to
arrange for experts to seek in
Huron traces of the Indian civil-
ization which was here before
18'28.
